DRM is crippleware which has always been a terrible idea. Let's ditch the focus on corporate profits and instead focus on making society better. Which is indirectly good for corporate profit anyway.

Edit: I wish the Hacker in HN was real.

Vast majority of people employed in the tech industry (think any major hardware or software company) are implicitly contributing to and benefiting from DRM. So I'm not too surprised with the general sentiment.
